Mark,

Good plan.


First download MSE from this web site:

Arrow down to the three links in the body of the article to download MSE. 
Select the link appropriate for your OS, and your download will start 
immediately. As long as you have a genuine copy of Windows, the set-up and 
installation should be a breeze. There is no captcha, registration or 
special configuration settings to deal with.

Then make sure you've absolutely and completely removed Norton. This is not 
just an uninstall, but also requires using the "Norton Removal Tool" that 
you'll need to download from their own web site. It's a pervasive program 
and is never completely removed until you run that program.

Then install MSE.

Dave

List,

I am considering uninstalling my Symantec Anti Virus and going with
Microsoft Security Essentials.  Does Microsoft Security Essentials work well
with JAWS?  Is there a direct download?

Thanks in advance,
 Mark
